It is a good question, the same page is present on the new website
<https://staging.www.osgeo.org/about/contact/> (going live tomorrow!) My
understanding is this address should go to directors and officers. For
questions that I can answer I do so. I confess with all the google code-in
emails I assumed any password questions were caught up in that process.

For questions like DNS registration reminders I saw that treasurer at osgeo.org
was CCed and assumed Micheal was on top of it?

When replying to one of these emails how about we CC info at osgeo.org in the
reply so "everyone else" can get in on the conversation and see if it is
closed out or not?

For passwords it is hard to know what to do...
